    Yeah that's a good point.

    These discussions are filled with too many factors. I just don't see how anyone could honestly say Corrales' chin is better than Cotto....when Corrales has been down over 10 times in his career.

      Because they havent faced similar opposition that is a tough one.

      Corrales took 14 rounds from castillo before finally being out so thats pretty impressive.

      Yet cotto hasnt been KOed but he hasnt faced as high as competition.

      Sorry there is no way to answer that at this moment. But if Castillo beats corrales in their 3rd match and then fights cotto we'll have ourselves a good comparison.

        That's why I chose the option "Hard To Tell"

        Corrales is a natural brawler, Cotto is a very good boxer. You can say that Cotto has only been down once, but what if he fought like Corrales? How many times do you think he would've been knocked down by now, and he hasn't fought the elite fighters yet?

        Cotto is a very smart fighter, he will not take the Corrales' way. This 'Puerto Rican Gatti' monicker is bull****, Cotto ain't gonna go down that road.

          this is ******, Corrales has gone with the best out there Castillo, Floyd, Casamayor, Freitas etc.

          Cotto was rocked by Corley lol who was 20 pounds lighter than Cotto and by some unknown Torres.

          Cotto is really turning to Gatti, in the sence hes been in great fights but with bums.

                  Cotto will suffer the same fate as Chico. Castillo knocks him out too.

                    haha, sorry dude, this **** made me laugh, i got a nephew who talks like that.

                    on the subject - i gotta say its hard to tell ... i know that corrales has been down a bunch of times, but i think thats more attributed to those tiny legs he has that wear down in the latter part of the fight as opposed to a shaky chin. cotto, gets dangerously wobbled in a fight, imagine if torres or corley had the instinct of a tito or duran, he'd be done.

                    corrales, you better start using that height and reach advantage more, and cotto, you better start using that technical mastery that you displayed early on in your career and stop falling in love w/ this supposed power that came in 2nd place to a unheralded unknown from columbia.

                    its a toss up, i'd say - let the two fight and settle it ... oooh man that would be beautiful ...

                      Cotto always comes back after he gets hurt, thats important to remember.
